Clearly very experienced, knowledgeable, and passionate. Came in nervous as it was my first piercing (eyebrow) but the atmosphere was so nice and welcoming it definitely eased my nerves. Piercing was done in less than 10 minutes start to finish and looked perfect. The way he talked me through the process definitely put me at ease and made me even more excited and confident about it. Months later, I've had no infections or complications after following the care instructions and its healed up perfectly. HIGHLY recommend, and can't wait to come back to get more work done! read more

Craig the Piercer - Eyebrow - Piercing Near Me - Orange, California

Had such a great experience here! The shop was very clean and professional, which made me feel comfortable right away. My sister and I came in together to get pierced! I got my forward helix and she got her nose pierced and the whole experience was amazing. There were two workers there, and I believe the piercer was Craig. He was incredibly kind, professional, and made us both feel so comfortable and excited. He has such a gentle hand that the piercings honestly barely hurt at all. You can tell he really knows what he's doing and cares about making the experience a good one. Overall, I absolutely love this place and would definitely come back for future piercings. Highly recommend! read more

This shop is seriously the best! I have gotten a few cartilage and my nose pierced here. I also have had them change out jewelry for me. This is the best piercing shop I've ever gone to and I've been getting piercings for over a decade. I truly couldn't reccomend it more! Especially for women because I've experienced some piercing or tattoo shops with an uncomfortable vibe and I've only ever felt sooooo comfy in here. Also my piercings have healed so well! They give great after care instructions read more

BEST Piercing Experience Ever--Tongue & Nipples Done Flawlessly! If I could give 10 stars, I would! I came in super nervous to get my tongue repierced and nipples done--both areas that require trust, precision, and skill--and I walked out beyond impressed. I was scared honestly, because I had heard a lot of horror stories about how much your nipples hurt to get pierced but he made me feel SO calm. He walked me through step by step and made me feel so comfortable. From the moment I walked in, the energy was chill, professional, and so welcoming. My piercer Craig was seriously the BEST. They took the time to walk me through every step, answered all my (probably annoying) questions, and made sure I felt safe, seen, and comfortable the entire time. Tongue repiercing: Smooth, fast, and almost painless. The placement was perfect and healing has been a breeze thanks to their detailed aftercare instructions. Nipples: I was honestly terrified, but he was so calm, respectful, and confident that it put me at ease. The piercings were super clean, symmetrical, and done with such care. The pain was way less than I expected, and the healing is going better than I imagined. The studio was spotless and sterile, everything was opened in front of me, and I could tell they take hygiene super seriously. Honestly, I've had piercings done at other shops before and none of them even come close to this experience. If you're looking for someone who truly knows what they're doing and actually cares about your body and your experience, this is the place. I've never felt so empowered and happy walking out of a piercing studio before. Highly recommend for any piercings, but especially the more intimate or sensitive ones. You'll be in the absolute best hands. read more

Craig was awesome. He explained the process clearly and when he pierced one ear that had closed up I only felt a pinch. I highly recommend him for your piercing needs. read more

I've been meaning to write a review for Craig for a while now. He's been doing all of my piercings for the past two years, and I couldn't be happier. He has pierced both of my nostrils, my septum, my eyebrows, and most recently my vertical labret. Craig is extremely gentle, patient, and always takes the time to answer all of my questions and concerns. Before each piercing, I usually get nervous because I've read so many stories of people having really painful experiences. But with Craig, it's always the complete opposite every single piercing has been so much less painful than I expected. Honestly, he has a special touch that makes the whole process surprisingly comfortable. He's absolutely amazing, and I would highly recommend him to anyone considering a piercing! read more

Supper fast service and convenient. I got my naval piercing as a walk in and was affordable and good quality.

The service was great. I did a walk-in appointment, Craig was super helpful, and answered all my questions. The vibe itself was great too, very friendly and super fast. He gave me after care instructions, most places just tell you what to do and what not to do, so that was a plus. read more

Got my eyebrow pierced 3 days ago by Craig! Craig was so kind, patient, and communicative. He took his time to help me decide where I wanted my eyebrow piercing placed, and walked me through each step he took as he was cleaning and piercing me. He also answered several questions I had regarding after care, and gave me an informative pamphlet regarding piercing aftercare. So obsessed with my piercing! Thank you Craig! pic is immediately after piercing was done read more

Craig the Piercer is awesome! I came to get my first more exotic piercing besides my lobes, a daith piercing, for my wedding. He is very thorough in keeping a sterile environment and guiding you step by step as he performs the piercing procedure. His "bedside manner" puts you at ease and explanation of after care puts you in the path for a fully healed, beautiful piercing and he is always available if you have questions/concerns. The shop is comfy and clean and stocked with a variety of jewelry for all price points. I have since brought friends and my daughter for piercings. I have since added a rook, conch, helix, stacked lobes and nose. Highly recommend and already planning my next piercing. read more

Craig was amazing with my two daughters (12 and 5). He was patient, fast and efficient. The girls said they barely felt anything. Truly a wonderful experience! read more

Super polite, quick, and gentle! Would recommend for sure! I will defenitly return for another round!

Craig was so gentle when piercing my daughter and explained every step to her before he did it, which was so appreciated. It helped her feel really comfortable with the process and she's thrilled with her nostril piercing. I also really appreciated the detailed aftercare instructions and the offer to contact him directly any time with issues or questions. Highly recommended! read more

I brought my seven year old here on her birthday to pierce her ears for the first time! I was SO IMPRESSED with Craig's demeanor. He didn't rush her, answered all her questions, took his time and made sure she understood exactly what was happening, but without talking down to her. They explained to me why a needle is so much better than a gun, and I love the ball backings they have -- much, much better and gives her ears space to breathe and comfortable for her to sleep in. He treated her with patience, kindness, gentleness, and a professionalism that made my mama heart feel confident we were in good hands. You can tell he's been in the business for 30+ years. I would recommend him in a heartbeat. Say NO to Claire's and YES to Craig! read more

We LOVE LOVE LOVE Craig the piercer! We have been coming here for years! And Craig is our favorite piercer. Over the years my teenager has had her nostril pierced, got the industrial piercing, cartridge and now she just got her septum pierced. The best part is that Craig is really good at talking the client through the piercing. He explains everything he is doing and he is so experienced. My daughter does not even flinch! He is so fast and efficient. I really can not say enough great things and writing a review is long overdue. Thank YOU Craig! read more

Craig was great for my 10yo daughter's ear piercing. Would really recommend him if you want to put your kids at ease. He talks patiently about each step and made the process very easy. He gives you his cell phone number just incase you have any issues down the road. Not something you get at the mall places! A piercing shop like this may seem like it's only for complicated piercings or people with multiple piercings. Not so, he made my daughter feel welcomed for her first piercing. Thank you! read more

Craig pierced me and my young daughter's ears. He talked her through the whole process and was very kind to her. The piercings themselves look great and the experience itself couldn't have been better. Craig is a great person and a great piercer! read more

Craig pierced my 11 year old's ears today, and he was fantastic! He was great at explaining the entire process to us, and took his time helping her feel comfortable. He kept checking with her to make sure she was ready, and didn't rush her at all. He explained everything that he was doing and what she would feel, so she knew what to expect and wasn't surprised. It was very obvious that he is extremely good at what he does, and he made the entire thing an excellent experience. I will be bringing my other child to get their ears pierced in the future. Wish I could give 100 stars! read more

I went to Craig's shop to switch my nose stud to a hoop. Having not been there before, I had no expectations; what a wonderful surprise. Craig is kind, knowledgeable, professional, helpful and patient. Never have I had a piercer give me a heads up on the pain scale. I found Craig to be highly skilled. I chose a daith, and barely felt it. He is a gentle giant, I will not go to anyone else! read more

This was my first time here and is officially the spot I will recommend to everyone I know. Craig was an absolute doll! He was professional, knowledgeable and made me feel completely at ease.

Keep it up!! read more
